Wow! The last two weeks have been SO crazy but SO fun! Sorry I was unable to email last week. I didn’t have time. I hope all of you are well! Let me know if I can do anything for any of you.
TRANSFERS! Last week I sadly had to say goodbye to my home of STAR . It definitely was hard to say goodbye to the people I got to work with for 8 months. I got transferred to NAMPA! I was also given a special assignment I’m super excited about. I am super excited to be serving here! I love it already.
CRAZY! This last week has been so crazy busy and so fun! I got to help with transfers, I didn’t realize how much went into them. So many logistics! I also got to be with the departing missionaries, serve them dinner and hear their testimonies. Then we drove a few of the missionaries to the airport at 3:45 in the morning! A few hours later (after we got ready and had a nap) we got to go back to the airport and pick up all of the arriving missionaries! THE HIGHLIGHT OF THE WEEK! It was so much fun! I also ran into my aunt Kerri at the airport! So special! I got to give a few trainings to those new missionaries and their trainers. It’s amazing to receive revelation and guidance from the Holy Ghost as we deliver those trainings.
NAMPA IDAHO Here in Nampa I am covering 2 family wards 1 YSA ward and a Tongan Branch. Ahhhh I love the Branch with my whole heart! They have such a special spirit about them. They allowed me to speak in sacrament with 10 seconds of notice and it was super fun. We went on visits with a sister named Ofa for a few hours and had a blast! We even found a new friend to teach named Nottie on some of those visits. He is a super sweet boy. I got to be the person to help him say his first prayer.. my heart melted!
